Selected
negligent entrustment
but the term usually impies that your action created a risk of harm to others. If that is not your case, then the term "careless" might be more appropriate.

The term negligent does imply a tort so it really depends on the context here. One might prefer to use something like "undue reliance" which sufficiently conveys the meaning: you unduly left your property with another.
